Voter’s education and awareness ahead of the 2019 general election topped discussion when Enough is Enough Nigeria held its fundraising event for the Register Select Vote and Protect (RSVP) and Office of the Citizen campaigns last week at the Harbor Point, Victoria Island Lagos.
Entrepreneurs and professionals spent time with business mogul, Aliko Dangote, Kelechi Amadi-Obi, 2Baba, Banky W, Oby Ezekwesili, Tunde Bakare, Lanre Olusola, Leke Alder, The Adeyemis, Ibukun Awosika, Banke Meshida-Lawal, Jumoke Adenowo, Aisha Oyebode and Mai Atafo for as high as 600,000 naira.
Dangote at the event shared with the celebrities tips on how to stay relevant in the business world and took time to engage them in what could be described as a robust conversation.
Hosted by Lala Akindoju and Richard Osuji, the evening showcased the organisation’s successes in promoting good governance and public accountability in Nigeria.
2Baba, Timi Dakolo and Banky W were honoured for their support and commitment to EiE’s work over the years.
Funds raised at the Light a Candle dinner will be used for EiE’s RSVP (Register | Select | Vote | Protect) and Office of the citizen campaigns to help increase voters’ education and awareness ahead of the 2019 general elections.
